Life Guard RotaAs a condition of our pool booking with the Spectrum we are required to provide a lifeguard.

Failure to provide a lifeguard will result in our booking being cancelled and we will lose the Spectrum for good.

No lifeguard = No training = No Pool. Simples.

Cornwall

Jerry Sutton is organising a weekends diving in North Cornwall on the 18th – 21st July. For those who did not go last year, it is the same place as they film Doc Martin.

The admin for this trip could not be easier, the campsite (with added free roaming chickens and if we are lucky Duncan's desiccated van rat may still be there!) is a short stumble from the launch point and the pub! There are numerous other options for staying in the area if you don't relish the life under canvas.

However, this trip is quite a large planning overhead and fiscal outlay booking campsites so if you are coming please let me know the following:

Slightly nearer the time Jerry will ask for a small deposit to cover camping and towing.

Soft Boats

James Paddison is organising a trip to the Shirala on the 21st June, please contact James if you would like to go on this trip.

Otherwise Hannah will assume that all the instructors are free to go to Wraysbury for a day and help her with tuition J
